First look at Amazon’s live-action God of War series

We have our first look at the upcoming live-action God of War series set to air on Amazon Prime. Unfortunately, the reveal hasn't gone down entirely well.

The first in-character shot of Kratos and his son, Atreus, has been released as part of an early marketing push for the God of War TV series. The show was already ordered for two seasons and it is expected that these seasons will follow the events of the 2018 God of War game and its 2022 sequel, God of War: Ragnarok.

The official synopsis for the show says: “Father and son Kratos and Atreus embark on a journey to spread the ashes of their wife and mother, Faye. Through their adventures, Kratos tries to teach his son to be a better god, while Atreus tries to teach his father how to be a better human.”

There is no word yet on when the first season will premiere but if filming is happening now, then chances are we will be watching the first episode in around a year's time.

KitGuru Says: While this isn't necessarily a frame-grab from a fully shot and edited scene, it does give us an idea of the costume and make-up design. I expect the final show to look better with all of the special effects in place.
